A..N..T..I..C..I..P..A..T..I..O..N

WELL I'M DOWN ANOTHER POUND TO 203 SOOOOOOOOOOO CLOSETO ONEDERALAND AND JUST OUT OF REACH.......................on the good side my ribs are FINALLY all better so I'm gonna get back into the gym in the next few days. I work tonight then Tuesday and I have a 6 day break which I plan to make full use of!

my house as requested plus a weigh in!

ok lets get the weigh in out of the weigh...........I hadn't weighed since I moved but I've lost 2 pounds eating whatever I want whenever I want. I just don't want nearly as much since I'm happier I guess. no more stress equals no more stress eating, who knew? lol so I'm at 204. which is wonderful, my fall from a week and a half ago is still affecting me, oh I'm getting better S..L..O..W..L..Y, VERY SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYY! lol I only get twinges when I stretch too much or bend too much so exercise is out for probably another week or so and that's ok. I'll get there eventually, onederland is tantalizingly close and I want to get there really bad, apparently this is my life lesson in patience which admittedly I have a problem with! (understatement!) LMAO
and here's various pics of my house...
these are my new barstools a housewarming gift

the new light fixture I picked out also a gift

this is also a housewarming present but it was the infamous supposed to be red rug that was burgundy, didn't work at all for the bedroom but beautiful in the living room!


this is my original rug which is now in front of my desk

the bedroom

these are the curtains gifted to me for the kitchen and I LOVE them!

my toy collection! lol





my bathroom has a name and theme it is "THE BUDDHA BATHROOM" it makes me tranquil and energized, so glad it went this way!  you cant see all of the colors but I have 4 bathmats, one orange, yellow, hot pink , turquoise..basically if it's in the Buddha poster I used it, the towels are the same colors.








this Buddha is my only new one, the rest I already had but I left the house the other morning "knowing" I was gonna have a new one, four shops and half a day later I found him at tj maxx of all places! take note of my 'found" soap dish next to him. it's a Rachel ray casserole dish my friend was gonna throw away! lolol I LOVE repurposing stuff!



I'm actually waiting on one poster to put in the frame you can see to the left of this pic.....
I just love the absurdity of it as if Buddha would need headphones! lol

an update and an OUCH!

well I've been enjoying my sabbatical from blogging and it feels great to let go of that daily pressure to perform. my house is ALMOST finished, I'm anxiously awaiting two posters and a bedroom rug today and 2 barstools sometime this week. other than that I filed my taxes (and PRE-spent them!) and when I get those and submit my amazon order Castle Timothy will be complete...........that's a new bed/frame/bedding, toaster over, cd player which I am looking forward to so very much, upgrading to a full bed from the twin I've been on the past year or so.
now for the OUCH and it was a BIG OLE OUCH indeed, thrusday night we got a dusting of snow, just enough to need to clean off the car. I turned on the defrosters and went all the way around the car I was virtually done when my feet went sideways and I landed on my left side and bounced my face off the driveway. I actually had the wind knocked out of me and saw stars for a few moments. on the bright side I didn't knock my silly self out cause it was pitch black and no one would have seen me til morning. I drug myself up and went on in to work (it was a truck night with an inspection the next morning) cause after last month I simply cant afford another er visit or any missed work.  here's a couple of then and nows so y'all can see...
this was Thursday


this is just a moment ago


that's my week in a nutshell, hope y'alls has been WWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYY better than mine! lolol
oh i'll leave y'all with some LOTR humor...
